They both were.”Great Bend swept its rounds against Western Athletic Conference opponents, namely Liberal, Garden City and Dodge City.“We played a lot closer to our potential,” Shannon Schartz said. “Now we’ve met everyone from the WAC.

We had a girl injured and my usual No. 2 doubles team had a prior commitment.“We got second in both No. 1’s. Both of those entries did well.”The Lady Eagles are reloading after graduating five seniors, returning only Oma Thomas from the state championship team.Thomas finished second in the No. 1 singles competition.Lady Eagles’ No. 1 doubles team Rachel Doll and Danae Patten finished second as well.“We’re really young, for the most part,” Stickney said. “We have one senior, two sophomores and three freshmen when everybody’s healthy and can show up. We’re small in numbers, but we’re mighty.“I forget sometimes how young we are, but it is really rewarding how these kids battle.”Great Bend travels to Dodge City on Thursday for an invitational, starting at 3 p.m.Ellinwood hosts a quadrangular at 3 p.m. on Tuesday.
